Aroma: Light earthy, woody, bitter
Commonly known as Skullcap, Huang Qin Hydrosol is produced from the golden yellow colored root of the scutellaria plant. I has a subtle woody, bitter aroma and taste. In traditional Chinese medicine the root is used to clear up of damp heat conditions. The hydrosol, with a Ph which is slightly more alkaline than normal skin is balancing for oily skin. It helps to even the skin tone and assist in lightening dark pigmentation. Plus, considering it’s attributes as an herbal medicine, it may be applied for purulent, damp skin conditions and infections. It can also be used as a mouthwash for sores, or gargle for sore throat.
